The Glourious Nine A legend is entwined around the tale of the Nine Glorious Knights. A tale of only nine men, who are said, to have bravely defended their fortress, which was full of women and children, against overwhelming enemy forces. This they did until assistance from their allies finally showed up. This series boldly shouts out the brutality and cruelty that existed during wars in medieval times. The metallic grey of the knights´ armor, albeit barely visible under the sheer red of spilt blood, is to be seen. Blades of grass, tiny twigs and dust on the canvas remind us of the suffering of the battlefield. The black colored skids of the helicopter were employed symbolically like the lance of a knight. With great gusto the artist flew at the canvasses leaving long and deep scars in the dripping red. And so the "Glorious Nine" are exceedingly powerful. They stand for a fighting spirit, courage and bravery.

Dr. Heiner Boerger – Artist and Pilot, born in 1960 in Duisburg, Germany. His education in the field of communication and design at the Hochschule der Kuenste (Academy of Arts) in Berlin (amongst others with Prof. Wolfgang Krebs) was completed in 1986. At this time only the western part of Berlin was free and lay like an island in the midst of the communist ruled GDR. Heiner Boerger was inspired by the artistic and liberal environment of West-Berlin. He was present in Berlin on November 9th 1989 and experienced first-hand the falling of the wall and the start of a new era of liberty and freedom for all Germans. After his dissertation under Prof. Posner-Landsch, Boerger founded an event agency in Frankfurt, Germany. Here he used his creative talent to work as a producer and director of live performances, film productions and music productions. In 1999 he successfully completed the training required to become a helicopter pilot. In early 2004 after several years of flying, Boerger fulfilled his greatest dream: he received the inspiration to build bridges and combine art with flying. Influenced by the universal approach of Renaissance and inspired by modern performance artists such as Pollock or Christo he began to create a new and unique form of art: "HELI-ART". In so doing the artist creates spectacular work using a helicopter at symbolic locations around the globe.
